U.S. Marines pulled ad from Lucianne Goldberg's website

The United States Marine Corps has pulled its ads from Lucianne.com, a website operated by Lucianne Goldberg, as a result of a complaint from LucianneWatch.com, a website that monitors and documents Lucianne.com.

(snip)

The United States Marines, for example, were most unhappy to see that they were associated with Lucianne Goldberg:

I appreciate you bringing this to our attention because Lucianne.com was NOT an approved site for the Marines.com online advertising buy .... Lucianne.com was not even listed in the sites provided by any of our vendors for consideration! This was obviously a rogue advertising decision by one of our vendors - a clear breach of contract.

Our media team has identified the offending vendor, has notified them of the breach, have told them to remove the advertising immediately, and confirmed that it will be removed from the site no later than close of business today - if not sooner. In addition, due to this breach, our entire contract with the vendor is also being terminated

What's next? The President's weekly radio address sponsored by the Rush Limbaugh show?
